| Abstract | "Clowns: In Conversation is a ground-breaking collection of interviews expanded in this second edition to include over 30 of the greatest clowns on earth. In discussion with clown aficionados Ezra LeBank and David Bridel, these legends of comedy reveal the origins, inspirations, techniques, and philosophies that underpin their remarkable odysseys. These artists speak candidly about their first encounters with clowning and circus, the crucial decisions that carved out the foundations of their style, and the role of teachers and mentors who shaped their development. Follow the twists and turns that changed the direction of their art and careers, as they explore the role of failure and originality in their lives and performances, and examine the development and evolution of the signature routines that became each clown's trademark. Clowns is a unique and definitive study on the art of the clown, exploring their role in the modern world - a fascinating series of discussions for students, scholars and teachers of clowning"-- Provided by publisher. |
